TUNE IN: sg001-harmony.sliq.net/00327/Harmony/…
@baconforco discusses the bill as well - who represents D7, and how much transit has mattered to #students #youngpeople and #workingparents and how much #CleanAir matters to her constituents #copolitics

Follow the bill! leg.colorado.gov/bills/hb23-1101🔥
@VigilForHD16 gives us a lesson on group level o-zone - "which is a combination of heat and toxins, and they mostly come from oil and gas operations - and then transportation is the next big one" #copolitics

Fantastic point Rep. #ClimateJustice

1) This is the cover of Good Will Hunting. Many people argue Robin William’s portrayal of a therapist in cinematic history [despite strangling and threatening the client in that famous scene]. Still, look at where Robin’s character did his best work: #Outdoors Image
2) This thread is about therapy outdoors as I was recently labelled as an “abuser”. I understand where this comes from my #research about survivors’ experiences in #WildernessTherapy. Good Will Hunting is not about Wilderness Therapy. They aren’t the same thing.
3) In 2020, I co-edited a book with Prof Nevin Harper titled Outdoor Therapies. This book examined #AdventureTherapy, #Nature-Based Therapy, Horticulture, #ForestTherapy, #Surf Therapy, #AnimalAssisted, &, yes, #WildernessTherapy.

"I had a heart attack when I was 33 - not an age usually associated with heart attacks. I am Ram, and I will tell you what it was like to have a heart attack.⁠

#HeartAttack #youngpeople #knowthesymptoms #SiddhaanthSuryavanshi #RIP Image
I am in a typical corporate job, and it has been a year of many changes; my wife delivered a baby, and with that came a huge change in our regular schedule. ⁠

I was constantly feeling restless and lethargic.
I attributed it all to a lack of proper sleep, given that there was a new baby in the house.⁠
Not for once did I stop to think that this could be something else.⁠
It was a Monday morning, and I woke up as usual and started getting ready for work.

1/ Q. People with underlying conditions like #hypertension (high blood pressure) and #diabetes seem to be at higher risk for complications and death from #Covid_19. Can you tell me more about this? Is there anything I can do to minimize complications if I become infected?
2/ A. This is a very important: the @CDCgov estimates that nearly HALF of all Americans have hypertension and 10.5% have diabetes. Americans are also developing these conditions at much younger ages, even adolescence.
cdc.gov/bloodpressure/…
cdc.gov/diabetes/pdfs/…
3/ Studies from the CDC and others show that although having an underlying health condition doesn’t increase your chance of CATCHING #COVIDー19, people with one or more of these conditions are at a higher risk for severe illness, hospitalization and death.

Corporate monopoly of seeds & dominating research & breeding, poses a massive threat not only to #biodiversity but food sovereignty- Seeds bred for profit not for food security. Corporates also working to criminalise farmer seed systems & farmers' rights to share & breed #seed
Seed laws only speak to the commercial sector who are Privatising the commons of genetic resources. corporates then influence states to subsidise their privatised seed. #ResilientLivlihoods&ClimateJustice2019
80% of the world's food is produced by small holder farmers who also prefer their own seed over commercial seed. Local seed is adapted to local ecology & social contact, resilient to climatic changes. For farmers resilience is more NB than maximum yields #ResilientLivlihoods

Ah, the #EuropeanParliamentElection knocks at the door! Let’s see who is #campaigning for what…In #Italy, a #rightwingcoalition calls for a #guaranteedincome, #largerpensions, and resistance to the heavy-handed #austerityprograms enforced by the #EuropeanUnion.
In #France, some #rightwinggroups champion #fight against #climatechange, decry #exploitation of #foreignworkers, growing #economicinequality. What about the #centerright and #centerleft parties? #Polls show they will lose their #majority, and the Euroskeptics bag 30+% of seats.
However, #Euroskeptic, like #populist, is a term that obscures more than it reveals. #Spain’s leftist #Podemos isn’t likely to break bread with #Italy’s rightist #NorthernLeague-#M5S, but both are considered #Euroskeptic. Some are really #wolves but wear #sheepskins.
